Overwatch Server Status, Problems

Many problems can and have occurred with this game, but the worst case is when the Overwatch server status is completely down. This is a very cool multiplayer first-person shooter game released onto platforms such as PS4, Xbox One and PC by Blizzard Entertainment, but when issues occur players can be left a little somewhat frustrated.

Is Overwatch down for you? Please do leave your reports below if this is the case, and of course any other problem you are experiencing with the game.

Other common issues include Overwatch being stuck upon entering a game, not able to login, when in a game you get lots of lag or maybe problems after installing and downloading a new update or after maintenance. What ever the issue we would love for you to share them right here.

I cannot login, i have tried for the last hour and still not happening.

Crissy

Servers are dead at the moment, heroes forever but for Blizzard this was not meant to be.

Danny

I cannot connect to Overwatch, since the patch went up i have had issues. Now Blizzard is reporting there are issues with slow or failed logins.

Jim

I have a feeling there has been a DDoS attack on Battle Net, login issues have been going on far too long now.

Mikal

Overwatch is not playing online for me on my Xbox One, when i am it i get booted often and there is also too much lag. Connecting is my main nightmare though, anyone else having the same issue?

Jokes

Able to play on ps4, but with INSANE amounts of lag. Pulled out for now because it’s literally unplayable.

Frey

For me can say the server is down, the server kicks me out ever few second to 2 minute and i can guarantee its not my server. Since i tried out multiplayer games. They work fine.

Frey

Its been like this for the last 2 udpate i did not mine at first because it went away after 3 weeks but this i ridiculous. With the last update it got worse people getting kick and then because the game wont let them back in. This server problem is no jock, this is practically tell me to throw this out if the server will be like this every update

Emily Sechrist

Server is completely down for me. With the holiday patch I had problems here and there but nothing like today. At first every time I joined a match I would get disconnected from the server (I could still play around in skirmish) and as of a few minutes ago I can no longer even get on Overwatch. Hopefully this will be fixed soon, I don’t mind so much if I’m playing arcade or quick play but I really feel for the people who were trying to rank tonight. One player told me they got suspended because they were disconnected mid game so many times.

Richard

Every game I’ve been in I lag and it takes a heavy effect on my gameplay, every 20-25 steps or so it lags and I end up standing still for a good 10 seconds which sucks because now I can barley play.

Here in Europe, Overwatch servers are down on PS4! I was playing comp and the enemy team had 1 guy left on his team and we (my team) had 3 guys. Suddenly, I get kicked out and when I tried to rejoin it, said it had 6000 people queued up already… When I got through the 6000 players in queue I started to join but then… Error code (LC-202). Help!
